Clean up: Because NFSD_V4 "depends on" NFSD_V3, it appears as a child of the NFSD_V3 menu entry, and is not visible if NFSD_V3 is unselected. Replace the dependency on NFSD_V3 with a "select NFSD_V3". This makes NFSD_V4 look and work just like NFS_V3, while ensuring that NFSD_V3 is enabled if NFSD_V4 is. Sam Ravnborg adds: "This use of select is questionable. In general it is bad to select a symbol with dependencies. In this case the dependencies of NFSD_V3 are duplicated for NFSD_V4 so we will not se erratic configurations but do you remember to update NFSD_V4 when you add a depends on NFSD_V3? But I see no other clean way to do it right now." Later he said: "My comment was more to say we have things to address in kconfig. This is abuse in the acceptable range."
